I am a Huge Techics Fan and Technics owner of Audio Equipment/Speakers for many years. I have about over 20 of the BEST True Wireless Earbuds in my Audio Collection, I listen to a lot of Music as a Hobby. I want to say first, that I did not want to write this Review because I am too busy to Write any Reviews. But after listening and trying the Technics AZ70 True Wireless Earbuds out for 2 days, I was amazed, happy and I was blown away. These Technics AZ70 True Wireless Earbuds do indeed sound GOOD!! Sound quality is Excellent as expected. Yes, and Earbuds come with 5 Sets of Silicone Eartips inside of the Box. But the thing is, is that Technics Silicone Earbuds are NOT made for Bass Music, by using just Silicone Eartips. Technics would have included a Pair of Foam Earbud Tips! The Technics AZ70 True Wireless Earbuds do have some Bass, but Bass is lacking with the Silicon Earbud Tips that are included inside of the Box.As an Expert Audiophile person, I can tell that the Silicone Earbud Tips that are included in the Box do NOT produce the Bass well for all songs!!! The Silicone Earbud Tips are holding the Earbuds back from performance. On the 1st Day of buying the Technics Earbuds and trying them out the 1st day, I was NOT happy with the Bass of the Earbuds, and I was thinking about 1st Returning the Technics Earbuds to Amazon. But luckily I decided to give Technics Earbuds a Second TRY on the second day. And that is when I was BLOWN away by the REAL Music Quality of Technics True Wireless Earbuds. On the 2nd Day of TRYING the Earbuds I decided to try using "Foam EarTips", and that is when all of the BASS came a LIVE inside of the Technics True Wireless Earbuds. Oh My God!! I could NOT believe the Improved Sound Quality that Happened from just trying some "GOOD Foam Eartips". I think Technics Manufactures forgot to ADD Foam Eartips to the Technics True Wireless Package Box, it may have just been an over sight, that they missed. I have found out that if you try adding a pair of “GOOD Foam Earbuds Tips” to the Technics True Wireless Earbuds you will really see and "HEAR what GOOD Music really Sounds like".Foam Earbuds Tips give the Technics Earbuds much more Better, Cleaner, Smoother, Solid "BASS Performance" with ALL Songs and any Music. I am Serious!! I highly RECOMMEND anyone buying these Technics Earbuds, and then trying some GOOD Foam Earbuds Tips on the Technics Earbuds, and you will be Amazed in the even MORE IMPROVED Sound Quality of the Earbuds, by using Foam Earbuds Tips. By adding Foam Tips onto the Technics True Wireless Earbuds, it makes the Technics True Wireless Earbuds sound even Better than the Sony WF-1000XM3 True Wireless Earbuds. By adding Foam Tips onto the Technics True Wireless Earbuds, it makes the Technics True Wireless Earbuds sound even Better than the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 Earbuds. I am Serious.Foam Earbuds Tips provide for a Better sound, and a tight seal to get a overall even Better sound signature experience along with improved noise isolation also. The noise isolation with Foam Earbuds Tips and the Ambient awareness modes, and Active Noise Cancellation features are all remarkable, making Music sound excellent!! The Sound coming from the Technics True Wireless Earbuds is awesome. Everything is Crystal Clean and Clear. I am serious. It's much better than anything else out there. The sound quality is "100% Amazing" especially when you use some Good Foam Earbuds Tips. I hope people try this for their own.I believe, the Dekoni Audio TWS Series Moldable Memory Foam Isolation Wireless Earbud Tips are Good.~AND~The ALXCD Replacement Foam Ear Tips for Galaxy Buds Headphone, S/M/L 3 Pairs Soft Foam Earbud Tips are Good.~AND~The ALXCD Foam Ear tips for Jabra Elite 65t Headphone, S/M/L 3 Size Memory Foam Ear Tips, Fit for Jabra Elite 65t Elite Active 65t are Good.These Foam tips will fit Perfectly inside of the Charging Case also.You have to make sure that the Foam Earbud tips size are SMALL, or MEDIUM.Foam Ear tips will give anyone better Noise Isolation & more Acoustics Audio Improvement on the Technics True Wireless Earbuds. These Technics AZ70 True Wireless Earbuds are worth the money if you prioritize Audio and build quality over everything else. For a wireless experience, these Technics did a great job in bringing much better Music Sound and ANC over many other True Wireless Earbuds. There’s a lot more emphasis on the mids and highs, creating a Brighter sound Signature overall. The Midrange, this is where the Technics really Shines. Shimmering, clear, and clean. Not too thin sounding, not too thick, but just right. Surprising amounts of depth, and a great subtlety of detail that competes with even the other high-end true wireless models.Music sound leans towards a Good upper-mid emphasis, but the feeling while listening is really "Well Balanced". The delicacy up in this range makes the Technics a formidable choice for classical, jazz, folk, and other genres of music that other true wireless earbuds usually leaves behind. Maybe it’s that Digital Sound Processor (DSP) at work, but the ultra-highs actually have some resolution here. I’ll be straight up: the Technics sounds better than any other true wireless earbuds in the $200 price range. The Technics brings a lot more to the High-End Audio listening than I was expecting. I am very pleased with everything. These Technics earbuds are $199.99 cheaper in price, and Technics Earbuds have a much Better high end and midrange than the other True Wireless Earbuds. The Music in these Technics True Wireless Earbuds sound so "GOOD", that even if you take the Technics True Wireless Earbuds out of your ears and you place Technics Earbuds on a Desk/Table 2 Feet away from you with the Technics True Wireless Earbuds Volume at only 50%, you can still hear the exact Words of the Song that is playing inside of the Technics Earbuds. That is how Clear the Audio is. It sounds like 2 giant Technics Speakers playing.Foam Eartips provide Big Soundstage and enormous ability to deliver the Good thumping Bass. The Technics AZ70 True Wireless Earbuds Sound quality is Excellent for a Bluetooth True Wireless Earbuds with Active Noise Cancelling, the True Wireless Earbuds they provide a push of tight Lows with Bass and a Nice warm midrange that goes well with any type of Music. I would say simply the sound is magnificent for Technics AZ70 True Wireless Earbuds price. The Bass response is Excellent and the soundstage is unmatched at the price. Mids are good and lush warm and rich which makes male and female vocals a Delight and the Smooth Treble means that you will never suffer from fatigue or any sibilance. Overall, the Sound quality is well Balanced and neutral and Technics AZ70 True Wireless Earbuds are technically very good.By using Foam Eartips the Technics AZ70 True Wireless Earbuds sound and Audio Quality is strong with Big Bass and a full Deep Midrange. Highs are rolled off and exceptionally Nice & Smooth. I just get blown away by how realistic these things sound by using the Foam Earbuds Tips. I know you probably wondering what am I talking about? Well, I did a BASS Song Test with the Song called "Sunrise by Simply Red". In that Song, there is a lot of Bass. If you listen to that Song with the included Medium or Large Silicone Eartips, you will hear how Bad, or Tinny the BASS sounds in the Technics Earbuds. But if you try again, and you use Foam Eartips and listen to the same Song called "Sunrise by Simply Red", you will then hear how much 10x's Better and more Alive the Bass sounds in Music using Foam Eartips. If you listen to that song for the whole 3 minutes, it will literally sound like you are at a Music Concert, music is Crystal Clear, when using Foam Eartips on the Technics Earbuds. When you use Foam Eartips you will hear the Immediate Difference, or you will hear the immediate Sound Improvement when listening to any type of Music. I am Serious. The Technics AZ70 True Wireless Earbuds are designed to deliver a Dynamic Feeling. When listening to Music using the Foam Eartips, it then sounds like the Technics Sound Music is reaching down into your Soul.You can feel the Music inside of you, and the Technics Music will connect with you Incredibly from using Foam Eartips. I would say by using any of the Foam Tips that I have mentioned, The Technics AZ70 True Wireless Earbuds create some of the Most Immersive and Realistic Hi-Fi Sound possible. "If you use Foam Earbuds Tips, the Music will then sound like you are inside of a Music Recording Studio." Try it. I am serious. If you buy these Technics True Wireless Earbuds, do yourself a Favor and purchase or invest in some Good $6.99 or $8.99 Amazon.com Foam Eartips like I did, and you will hear the "Improved Sound Quality" that I am talking about. I think the ALXCD Foam Eartips for Jabra Elite 65t Headphone, S/M/L 3 Size Memory Foam Ear Tips are the Best. From using Good Foam Earbud Tips, I have found that the Technics EAH-AZ70W True Wireless Earbuds really deliver Rich, Expansive Sound with Smooth, Detailed Highs and nice, tight, articulate Bass to "Hear ANY Music as it was intended."I have found out that the Technics EAH-AZ70W True Wireless Earbuds really have Audiophile-Grade Sound!

I would say that Technics AZ70 True Wireless Earbuds are the Best sounding Earphones, or BEST True Wireless Earbuds that I have ever tested. I Highly Recommend them.

There's a lot to like about these buds: Great sound, great noise cancellation, competitive set of features for the price, cool Technics design/pedigree.In the so-so column: They're on the bulkier side (but by design). They slid a bit out of my ears with the repetitive motion of walking down a flight of steps (but stayed in place). Battery life is on the average/low end (about 5.75 hours on a single charge for me, with active noise canceling turned off). They're fiddly to get out of the case. But none of these were deal-breakers for me.The touch controls were the deal-breaker. They're easy enough to learn, if not super-logical--but responsive to a fault. Trying to nail down the difference between a tap and a touch, for example, or a double-tap and triple-tap is tough--and just frustrating after a while. Any minor adjustment of/slight contact with the buds can (will) trigger some unwanted action. The first time this happened to me (as I was seating them in my ear, for f's sake) the buds activated my phone's voice control, which picked up some background TV noise, which the phone registered as a command to dial somebody I haven't spoken to for 6 years--all in the span of about 2 seconds. The next morning, the same thing happened. Both of these awkward moments were triggered by a single touch of the buds--so I just returned them.Is this normal for capacitive touch controls, especially on earbuds? Maybe. But this was pretty extreme. If Panasonic/Technics allowed users to program their own controls, it might help. Or just added a *little* latency. As it stands, the touch controls just interfere with the listening experience.

The technics have a great overall sound, the app allows you to customize to your preferences, so that you can adjust the bass, the guitars the vocals they way you like, that is a great plus.I think there are a few buts for me with these earbuds, I want to make sure that I liked the sound and that made me think twice about returning them, none the less there's an issue which might be a factory issue (I hope, otherwise it's a big problem with these earbuds), I'll name the buts in this product:1. Sound is great and customizable BUT, I am a bass lover, and there's an interference-like sound that is permanently there when you turn up the bass and impossible to ignore when the bass sounds, it only shows up when you're using the noise cancellation, some people might be able to ignore it, but I just can't, again, this might be a factory problem for my particular set, not sure.2. The case is big, not impossible to carry in a pocket, but easily noticable, some peaople might not be comfortable to carry these, because of this, they're not that manageable in movement, so use in public transport is not that easy.3. I don't really mind much about noise cancellation and these are the first buds I get with this feature. The feature to switch from full noise cancellation to ambient sound is awesome, I have to say and from other reviews I saw before purchasing, noise cancellation is not perfect and if you're looking for absolute silence, this may not provide. On the other hand, ambient sound still makes people voices hard to hear, it mainly allows to hear cars and ambulances.4. The controls, I loved the controls, I have a very soft touch and I am very careful so using the controls was not difficult and I loved the fact that you can personalize the controls. Nonetheless, for people that is a bit clumpsy I'm most sure they'll have problems controling these. An issue I found that really bugged me is that I have long hair, and I practice sports, so that when my hair was sweaty the controls would activate permanently with the touch of my hair! Yes, the controls are that sensitive! and there was no way to overide this.5. Battery, battery stored within the earbuds is pretty fine for me, at least 6 full hours with noise cancellation. Nonetheless, I would expect the case to store more battery considering the size it has, another down side is that charging the case completely takes loooong time, I'd say no less than 3.5 h.So if you're planning on using these in a silent environment you'll get a great audio experience if you don't mind about the bass too much or if you can ignore the slight interference with noise cancellation.
